Sazan Ramen · Highland
Infatuation (8.4). Clean, restrained bowls. The shoyu and tantanmen are the picks at this Highland strip-mall standout.
Ramen Tatsu-Ya · Zilker
Infatuation (8.0). The Tatsu-Ya empire's signature tonkotsu. The line-forming original that built Austin's ramen scene.
Marufuku Ramen Austin · Mueller
Marufuku is a Mueller ramen shop specializing in Hakata-style tonkotsu, its pork broth simmered to a silky, milky richness over ultra-thin noodles. The chicken paitan bowl offers a lighter alternative, and you can dial in noodle firmness the Fukuoka way. Part of a well-regarded West Coast group, its Aldrich Street location brought a serious tonkotsu specialist to the neighborhood.
